Hey, @SecDuffyNASA, if you're angry that people are saying that China will beat us to the Moon, read this to understand why they're saying that: reason.org/commentary/par… reason.org/policy-study/c…

It's very clear to me (and in fact was at the time) that my integrity was more important than my financial success. I've sacrificed quite a bit for my unwillingness to help the aerospace industry defraud the taxpayer, because I thought that advancing humanity into space was more…
